0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

ExpiredDomains.com is a well-established online platform specializing in providing comprehensive listings and insights for expired and expiring domain names. The platform targets domain investors, SEOs, marketers, and affiliate site owners by offering advanced search and filtering tools, domain metrics, and direct links to trusted registrars such as GoDaddy for domain purchases. The business model is based on free access to domain data, monetized through affiliate partnerships with registrars. The website enjoys a strong market position with high user ratings and a consistent brand presence across multiple social media channels. Technically, the website employs modern web standards including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, with SVG icons and Cloudflare DNS services. The site is mobile-optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and professional design. Hosting and domain registration are managed by reputable providers, ensuring stable infrastructure. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in accessibility and SEO. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses domain status protections to prevent unauthorized changes. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and security headers are not explicitly observed, indicating potential areas for enhancement. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which could be improved to increase user trust and compliance. Privacy compliance is basic but present, with a privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism in place. Overall, the website is trustworthy, safe for general audiences, and professionally maintained. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, publishing detailed security and incident response policies, and enhancing security headers to strengthen the security posture and compliance standing.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  3. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

ExpiredDomains.com operates in the niche market of expired domain sales and domain investing tools. Its competitive advantage lies in offering a free, comprehensive, and frequently updated database of expired domains across hundreds of TLDs, combined with proprietary metrics and integration with major registrars like GoDaddy. The platform appeals to a global audience of domain investors, SEOs, and marketers seeking to acquire valuable domains for branding, SEO, or resale. Revenue streams likely include affiliate commissions from domain sales and backorders. The company maintains a strong social media presence and user engagement, which supports growth and market penetration. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified, indicating an independent operation focused on domain data services.

Security posture

The security maturity of ExpiredDomains.com is moderate. The site uses HTTPS, which is mandatory for secure communications, and domain registration includes standard EPP status codes that prevent unauthorized domain transfers or deletions. However, the absence of DNSSEC reduces DNS security against spoofing attacks. No advanced security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which could mitigate common web vulnerabilities. The lack of published security policies, incident response plans, or vulnerability disclosure programs limits transparency and preparedness. No signs of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were found. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could benefit from enhancements in DNS security, HTTP headers, and formal security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to protect against DNS spoofing and improve domain security.
  2. Implement and publish comprehensive security headers (e.g., Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options) to mitigate web vulnerabilities.
  3. Develop and make publicly available a security policy and incident response plan to enhance transparency and user trust.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance accessibility and SEO features to improve user experience and search engine rankings.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, with SVG icons for graphics. It uses Cloudflare for DNS services and GoDaddy as the domain registrar. The site is mobile responsive and has a clean, professional design. Performance is moderate, with some lazy loading of video content to optimize resource usage. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom-built platform. The site lacks some modern security headers and DNSSEC, which are technical risks. The search form uses POST method with CSRF tokens, indicating attention to form security. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but has opportunities for modernization and security improvements.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
